Married couples in wedding party

I think I agree with your mother on this one

Meh. I've been in both situations (paired up by height, and paired up by couple), and I didn't really care either way. As a general note however, I think pairing people by height is putting far too much thought into it. Like, its a little overkill. Just pair people up however, it really doesn't matter. (Couples would probably prefer to be together.)

I'd say no one will notice if they are in the right order of height

Couples like to be together...

Just let them walk together, height doesn't matter I'm barely 5 feet and my fiancé is 6 feet no one cares

They probably would actually notice that they aren't lined up by height. My tallest BM is 5'10" without heels and my shortest is 5'2" without heels. The tallest GM aka my brother is 6'9" and the shortest is about 5'7".

Um.. I would agree with your momma!

I've been debating this too but I just looked at a processional break down last night that has the groomsmen coming in alone and the bridesmaids following.

I've been to weddings that have done it both ways. Leaning toward breaking them up to end the height debate.

They do not need to be lined up by height.

Let the couples be couples

I think as long as you have picked a MOH and Best Man and they stay in those positions regardless of who they are married to it doesn't matter. My FH was recently in a wedding and the groom wanted to have him be the best man but the bride didn't want to choose. He had known the groom for 15 yrs and the bride wanted to put the husband of her friend (who the groom knew maybe for 2 yrs) who was in the MOH Position where my FH was. Luckily the groom put his foot down and said something to his bossy wife and things were smoothed out. It can really hurt people's feelings if you value someone's marriage over how long you've known someone

The best way to do it would be having the guys walk in first, and then have each bridesmaid walk down alone. I honestly prefer it that way and is what I will be doing. That way the only time they would be "walking together" would the for the recessional

I think height is fine or couples with couples is fine. It's two minutes of walking with someone. Personally I think people should be able to handle it either way

Oh geez why even stress yourself with this? I never even knew this was a thing! Let the married couples walk together. This is so silly. Matchy matchy | heighty heighty so what?

Let husband's walk with their wives, In the end that matters more. I understand why you'd like to have the height matched up but the weddings party would be much happier being with their partner

Hope this helps you decide!

I think you are both over-thinking it. I think couples can walk apart for the 20 seconds down the aisle but height order also doesn't matter.

They can walk with whomever you want them to walk with. Height be dammed. #twa #rcb

If both are in the wedding party they should walk together, unless one is MOH/BM and the other is not.

My husands brother is married, we actually did not have him and his wife walk together because we wanted his brother closer to him at the alter. his brother was up front, so he walked with my sister so that my sister was closer to me as well. its really up to you, you can't go wrong either way!

I was once in a wedding where all but one of the BMs was taller than the GMs. We were all 5'7" - 5'11" except for one who was 5'. All the GMs were 5'6" - 5'8" except one who was 6'3". There was one married couple in the group and they walked together, everyone else, just walked with whomever.

It doesn't matter in the end.
